I was clothes shopping in TK Maxx last week and as always, the beauty shelves grabbed my attention. I came across the W7 Metallic Planets Collection. It was the last set there and I had to pick it up. Perfect, as I have been looking for some nice duochrome shades! It was €12.99 for 5 polishes (The pack said the RRP was over €30, which I can't imagine is right, as W7 polishes are pretty cheap.) Still, I picked it up and here's what they look like...

Surprisingly, I haven't tried them yet as I've been loving my cupcake nails! I'd keep these for spring as I like to do red, glittery, arty nails over the holiday season... But I will try them soon, as I think Metallic Mars would be a gorgeous shade for Winter!

I'm looking forward to trying them, and I will post pictures and do reviews!

An old song popped into my head this morning, and I just HAD to listen to it. I opened the song on YouTube, sat back and listened, and let all the memories flood my mind. I do love Westlife (obviously), Britney (obviously!) and Rihanna, but I just prefer older music, especially from the 60's.

This is one of my favourites.

Ray Peterson - Tell Laura I Love Her

I used to sing these songs with my parents. They're huge fans, and it has passed on to me. This music would be playing all day, and I know the lyrics to so many of these songs from listening to them so much. The thing is, they never get old. I could listen to them all day. These days, if I hear a song maybe 3 times, chances are, I'll get sick of it (unless it's Westlife!)

It made me realise that music from the 50s to the 80s is SO much better than the noise that people call 'music' these days. The songs were sang with passion, emotion and true heart. It's such a shame to see that real music has faded away... I'm an oldies girl at heart!

Oh my God. I mean, just look at it! I'm a HUGE Hello Kitty fan, and I already have 3 Hello Kitty bags... But I NEEDED this! It's part of my Christmas present from my fiancé and it's from eBay. It cost around €20, which I think is pretty amazing.

It's faux white leather, and the inside is white too, but the zip is baby pink with a gold zipper pull. There is loads of room inside this tote bag, which I love and I carry a lot around with me, so it's handy!

On the top of Hello Kitty's head, she has her trademark bow, and this one is a huge baby pink 3D bow! I love it! The back has a pretty design, which says Hello Kitty, and has a picture of her head and 2 hearts.
